We’ve arrived in Nagoya, the capital of Aichi Prefecture!
Aichi Prefecture

Hitsuma Bushi ひつまぶし

This is essentially a bowl of rice, topped with eel that is cut into strips. It is famous for having three unique ways of eating. First, you can enjoy the taste of the eel as is is; second, you can add accompaniments such as onion and wasabi; third, you can add stock to the rice bowl. Adding stock or tea to a bowl of rice is known as ochazuke.

Miso Katsu 味噌カツ

This dish, famous in Nagoya, is a pork fillet that is deep fried in crumbs and topped with black miso. It can be eaten with thick, gloopy miso or with more of a thin sauce variation. Most places have a half-and-half option on the menu. It can be enjoyed with soup and rice, but a bed of cabbage is a must!

Miso Stewed Udon 味噌煮込みうどん

For this dish, very thick udon noodles are boiled in a pot with a strong miso soup. It is wonderful on cold days and will warm you up. Pop an egg on top and enjoy the warming sensation and deep taste.
